Who and what travels through our solar system? What brave humans (and dog) have been the first in space, the first on the moon, and the first to spacewalk? What gods did the ancient greeks see in the skies at night and in the passing of day?
This illustrated chart was designed by me and hand-printed by my dear friends at Commonwealth Press. It features 8 planets, 4 astronomers, 4 cosmonauts, 3 astronauts, 3 comets, 3 spacecraft and 1 ill-fated hound, along with helpful annotations. In the dark it features 15 mythological figures of the heavens. It is printed on sturdy black paper with white, blue and glow in the dark ink which appears as faded grey in sunlight.
These are being printed on the same paper, with the same ink, and by the same fantastic people as the Illustrated Constellation Chart, listed separately. See that item for close ups of the paper and ink. This is something of a companion piece.
